3.4 Towing fixture
*
Please ensure that the permissible tow bar load, maximum
towing weight and rear axle load for the vehicle are not ex-
ceeded, especially when you are loading the rear garage.
Simultaneous use of the tow-bar and the rear carrier and/or
eBike carrier is not permitted.
While manoeuvring to hitch and unhitch loads, ensure that
no-one is standing between the motor home and the trailer.
The maximum towing weight, trailer load and tow bar load
are set out in
Chapter 14 "Technical Data"
.
Due to stipulations by the manufacturer of the basic
vehicle and the fixing of the so-called D value of the towing
fixture no additional loading of the towing loads is possible.
If the technically permissible maximum weight is increased,
the trailer load is reduced , respectively. Again, in this case
the trailer load cannot be increased.
